Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Hi there, welcome back to WordPress Trac!

 Just adding some context from #54877:
 * The `$database`, `$port`, and `$socket` parameters of
 `mysqli_real_connect()` should actually be nullable, as they are `null` by
 default in [https://github.com/php/php-
 src/blob/c68591fa1681dd63b34a429a3378c37f4a657d8d/ext/mysqli/mysqli.stub.php#L294-L306
 PHP source], per comment:15:ticket:54877.
 * The issue might have to do with using
 [https://www.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.litespeed.php LiteSpeed PHP],
 per comment:42:ticket:54877.

 P.S. Ah, it looks like this is already noted above.
